Blogging restart fall 2011

It has been almost a year already since my last post and even before then I wasn't doing so good at keeping up. I would like to give it another go and try to be faithful about keeping this up to date. Many friends are on Facebook and obviously through email and phone calls but I want to try to update with an entirely new outlook on how and why.

In the beginning I was trying to document our lives as it seemed we were going through so many changes and in the end I just got swallowed up by our busy-ness! Now instead I want to talk not only about our life but I want to include anything I get inspired by. A snapshot I take or a blog I read or an idea I come across.

This last year has included so many fun times and I have not talked about any of them on here. I want this to be a place for my kids to look back at and learn more about our family, and about their mother. A sort of legacy to remember me by. I want them to know more about me and how much I loved them. With school around the corner I feel I get another year of 2nd chances to make my kids feel special, connect with them and document their lives. I am not a scrapbooker-their baby books leave so much to be desired-my children instead hopefully will be able to look through this blog and relive childhood memories. Maybe I can get it made into a book.

Restarting his blog is on my TA-DAH list!
